you're mine. (𝐒𝐚𝐦 𝐱 𝐦𝐨𝐧)

32

(mons POV)

After that awkward situation that just happened, I couldn't help but think of lady Sam.

The more I thought of lady Sam the more I began to think of what her and I were. Are her and I just friends, are we lovers, is she just my boss. What are we!?

"Mon" nop called out, I slightly flinched at his voice.

"Yeah?" I reply

"What are you thinking about?" He asks

I couldn't do it anymore, if she wants his answers he'll get his answer.

"Nop, you're a really nice guy. I really like this friendship we have, but you and I can't be more than friends. I .. my heart .. it belongs to someone else. I hope you understand" I say. I excuse myself and leave

I didn't want to bother lady Sam and ask for a ride back home so I decided to walk back home by myself.

--

As I was walking back home I decided to text her.

"I'm going back home, goodnight lady Sam. Thank you for driving me over"
I wrote.

I put my phone away and continued to walk.
It felt good to say no, if I say yes just because I would've felt bad if I said no I would most definitely be unhappy and it wouldn't work out anyway.

I really need to learn how to start saying no to what I don't want.

--

I reached my house in 30 minutes and by the time I got home it was already dark and cold outside.

I got inside and went straight to my room. All I wanted now was to do absolutely nothing, about everything.

I lay on my bed and stare at the blank ceiling with many thoughts in my mind.

"Does she even like me like I like her?" I whisper. I get up and change my dress into my pajamas.

Well tomorrow is another day.

(Next day)

I woke up to noises in the kitchen.
I peek into the kitchen and see my mom making crepes. Yumm!

"Good morning" I say.
My mom turns around and sees me standing there. She smiles at me, "good morning" she replied back.

I go to her side and watch her decorate the crepe.
"Here" she says as she hands me the plate, "eat up and wash up then get ready"

I nod as I begin scrolling through my Instagram feed.

As I was scrolling I saw a text from lady Sam. I immediately opened it and read what she wrote.

"Let's meet up today after work. Ice cream shop, 7pm. See you there" she wrote.

I liked her message and sent her a "👍🏻" back. She immediately saw it and started typing. She was typing for a bit then stopped. I wondered what she was typing.

(Sam's POV)

I woke up to the sound of my alarm and I did not want to get up at all. I rolled over to shut off my alarm and saw how I still had mons name as my alarm name.

The reason her name appears when my alarm rings is...because she gives me motivation everyday, to keep going, to get up, to show up at work. Shes my motivation.

I sat up and saw Kirk was gone, the couch pillow were back to its place, the blankets were folded and stacked with the pillow on top. I saw a little postit note on top of the blankets so I got up and read what he wrote on it.

"Sam, I'm leaving to work now. Thank you for letting me stay over. I hope you're okay. Take care, until next time Sam.
                           - Kirk "

I smiled at how he showed her cared, mostly about how he folded the blankets and cleaned up where he slept at. He did me a huge favor.

I went back to my side of the bed and grabbed my phone. I opened up my messages and went to mons profile.

I opened up our chat and began to type.

"Let's meet up today after work. Ice cream shop, 7pm. See you there" i wrote.

I hesitated on sending it, but I still did it anyway.

I immediately threw my phone back on my bed once I clicked the send button.

Not even 3 minutes in, I heard a ding from my phone. I immediately grabbed my phone again and opened it.

"👍🏻" She wrote back.
Just a thumbs up?? Nothing else?
Ugh. I began typing in anger.
"Just a thumbs up? Not even a "okay by the way how did you sleep?" Just a a thumbs up?" . I hesitated if I should send it or not.

"That sounds too mean" I whisper to myself. I deleted it and closed our chat.

"What a day this will be."
